Early Fraternity Life
Amos joined Phi Sigma Pi after meeting a few brothers through his older (biological) brother Oded Eshel (also a member of the Gamma Epsilon chapter). Meeting the amazing people in Fall '04, his first semester in college, made the decision to rush Phi Sigma Pi a simple one. Amos rushed Spring '05 (his freshman year), making him a member of the Pi Class.
